Brookfield Business Partners L.P. (“BBU”) and Brookfield Business Corporation (“BBUC”) announced that they have received all required approvals to complete the previously announced corporate simplification to convert into one publicly traded Canadian corporation.

“Today represents an important milestone in the continued growth and evolution of our business as we near the completion of simplifying our corporate structure,” said Anuj Ranjan, CEO of Brookfield Business Partners. “We expect the benefits of converting into a single listed corporate entity – including greater index inclusion and improved trading liquidity will help broaden our global investor base and support our continued focus on creating long-term value for our shareholders.”

The court-approved plan of arrangement is expected to become effective prior to markets open on March 27, 2026. On closing, all BBU limited partnership units, BBUC Class A exchangeable shares and redemption-exchange units held by Brookfield will be exchanged for newly issued Class A shares of the new Canadian corporation on a one-for-one basis. The new corporation will assume the name Brookfield Business Corporation.
